Pacemaker Implantation

Pacemaker implantation is a medical procedure that involves placing a small device, called a pacemaker, under the skin near the heart to help regulate its heartbeat. This device sends electrical signals to the heart, ensuring it beats at a normal pace, which is particularly helpful for those with irregular heart rhythms. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia, requiring only a small incision. Patients usually experience improved energy levels and quality of life post-implantation. Regular follow-ups ensure the device functions properly and adjustments can be made if necessary.
